Minimalist Style Pet Enclosure Fittings

thingiverse

A system of pet enclosure wall fittings which are unobtrusive/minimalist to provide your pet the best viewing of their owner. Intended for 355mm high walls, typical of small animal enclosures where the animal has poor climbing tendencies (guinea pigs, mice perhaps?) The fittings are designed for a snug fit of 3mm thick perspex/acrylic or ply board depending on your application. All fittings are intended to be screwed into the enclosure base structure using countersunk self tapping timber screws. The wall panels easily slide out from the top to allow for cleaning with minimal hassle. There are 4 different classes of fittings which I've named irrationally as: - Centre: really should be called something else as its designed to join wall panels together with no angle between them (or a 180° angle depending on how you look at it...) to form one continuous wall. - Internal: a 90° corner fixture which is an internal corner with respect to the enclosure space. - External: a 90° corner fixture which is an external corner with respect to the enclosure space. - Base: a simple bottom fixture which prevents the wall panels from 'popping out'. The STL files are broken into two so that they can be printed by the vast majority of 3d printers and then assembled once printed. Apologies for the photo quality - they looked better when I was taking them :( Disclaimer: these designs are provided 'as is' - I provide no warranty and accept no liability for the use of these designs in any application. Please consider your pet's safety, requirements and capabilities when implementing any enclosure system and design your enclosure to safety house your pet.
